Becky- I had those very same muscle cramps both before and after Graves
diagnosis and for several years after radiation. As I worked to improve
my immune system by eating whole foods and eliminating alcohol,
caffiene, sugar in its many forms and regular excercise my muscle which
had been badly damaged by the Graves from lactic acid buildup and
weakness due to starvation, my muscles stopped cramping and have not
since. With new body stresses from menopause, I again need to be
careful. Sandy
